    Q. What is the most annoying thing on Usenet?


    Thanks Jay

    I don't know the tradition here about top or bottom posting. I've only been here since about halfway
    thru the tour, and seen both, in about equal numbers. I didn't see anything about it on the FAQ.

    Is it a requirement? Odds are not many in here think very fondly of you.

    There was actually a reason to post it here because it made a difference on Lance's bike. Kurgan you
    can take a hike!

    It's what you see the riders throwing to the side of the road once their chain stay is filled with
    pee that has gotten to warm to drink.

    I'm kicking his ass this weekend if he has the guts to show up in El Cajon. I can't kick his ass
    during the week because I have a brain dead corporate job.

    Who gives a [censored] if folks just show up for July? Is it supposedly a "waste of bandwidth" or some
    other [censored] like that?

  18. Along with the team mechanics, each team has a witch doctor who does a dance around each bike before
    every day's stage. This is a sercretive ritual involving chicken blood, body hair shaved from the
    team leader's legs, and WD-40. The purpose of this dance is to ensure that the chain on the bike
    stays on the sprockets during the race. Over the years, this witch doctor became known as the
    "chainstay" because he or she would dance around the bike shouting "CHAIN..... STAY...."

    Thanks for asking. -Bobke

    What exactly is the "chainstay"?

    It's the lower of the four small frame tubes that hold the rear wheel in place. Horizontal, or
    nearly so, goes from bottom bracket to the rear dropout. The other tubes are called seat stays.
    Used in a sentence: Armstrong's bike had a damaged chainstay. HTH --Karen M.
